Lonely Christmas

[Verse 1]
The snow is falling down
The temperature is dropping
Lights light up the town
And everyone is Christmas shopping
But I'm lost in the crowd
Oh, why can't I remember
The reason I'm so down
And why this happens to me every cold December?

[Chorus]
It's a feeling that I just can't dismiss
I'm gonna spend a lonely Christmas
Sitting here and staring back at my TV
A Miracle on 34th Street
On the all-night TV repeat
Just Bob Hope and Santa Claus and me

[Verse 2]
Those conversations I can't stand
'Cause I know what they're gonna say
"Tell us all your Christmas plans."
When they know I'll be home for the holidays

[Chorus]
So why can't they mind their own business?
I'm gonna spend a lonely Christmas
Sitting in my living room
For all they know I might have family, friends, and neighbors
Christmas cards and wrapping paper
Trimmings on the tree and mistletoe

[Verse 3]
But they can't hurt me anymore
If I won't share their Christmas spirit
They won't hang holly at my door
They won't sing carols, won't come knocking
Won't come near it

[Outro]
So why can't they mind their own business?
I wanna spend a lonely Christmas
Sitting in my living room but that's OK
I don't need no one else, I got my
Microwave and a turkey pot pie
Just another lonely Christmas day
Whoa oh oh oh oh
Just another lonely Christmas day
Hey hey hey
Just another lonely Christmas day
